I saw a couple of posts on this but didn't thik much of it until I was doing some maintenance and took a looksie. I was really, really p*$$ed off. I edited the referrer template and disabled those stats. They're mostly google anyway.

It was even kinda creepy. I was going through the referrer and domain database tables with phpMyadmin deleting some entries for the bot entries. I was then checking the server logs with a log analysis app. While I was doing this those bots came!

Oh, well. Anything for an inbound link from another site, eh?

I plan to just leave that page disabled. I doubt my users care about that page anyway.

I do hope this is upgraded - it is a very nice hack. This has been a minor inconvenience.
